"Womyn"

[jackofwind]

Agreed. Just a bunch of verbal circle jerking.

Then add something to the discussion. There has been a fair amount of disagreement in the thread already - it's just not surprising that most people seem to agree that the use of terms like "womyn" and "xe" are simply ridiculous.

Quoting me is also a trigger.

Oh noes! Now I'm gonna have to go to awareness training. I should just include a trigger warning in all my posts.

Isn't that what most threads are? Or are you saying that because this thread if mocking feminists it deserves to be closed more than other threads, Misandrist threads for example.

Just a few minutes ago there was a thread where someone asked what a furry was and it was closed in 5 minutes because the mods feared there would be furry mocking.
I find it weird how mocking certain subjects is acceptable but others can get you infracted.

Tradewind isn't helping.

You've discovered my secret.

Someone who does what they want in their own home isn't bad though. We're talking about people who infridge on others by insisting you act or talk a certain way.

Nobody's mocking feminism, if we had to define it, we're mocking insane radicals who make normal feminists look bad.

Mocking idiots is acceptable because there being idiots. Furries are generally associated with sex (for good reason) and those types of threads are closed pretty sharpish, they also tend to devolve into just insulting other posters. I don't think anyone here has insulted another poster, beyond calling out the stupidity of most extreme feminism is.

Threads about certain subjects, e.g. sex, religion, are banned.

Threads about a pointless change in the English language that serves no purpose other than to invite scorn, generally aren't.

Is this thread "mocking feminism"?

Yep. Feminism is apparently now reducible to the spelling of the word "woman."

I'm just saying a little consistency would be appreciated.

There's nothing inconsistent about it.

If this thread had been about something comparable to Furries, you'd have a point.

Fully forgetting about how the "Y" chromosome is male. It's just beautiful how hard they are owning themselves.

[MerinPally]

I think 'femail' is the women's section of the Daily Mail, so they wouldn't want to be associated with that.

What do you mean "think"? You absolutely knew!

[pateuvasiliu]

There are plenty of moderate modern feminists that have stayed true to the original feminist movement

I keep hearing this.

Could you show me a few, please?

Blogs, articles. Anything, really.

Under which of the not allowed subjects does this thread come?

You appear to be deliberately trying to derail the thread, which is something I have never done in over 9k posts.

Lol, did not even notice that

We are consistently mocking the shit out of people who start stupid movements and who show an utter ignorance of how language works or where it comes from.

No one is arguing about sex, or politics, or religion, all of which would be grounds to close the thread and one of which would quickly poke its head into a furry thread (even though furry =/= yiff/clop).
